The Dermatology Clinic

What The Dermatology Clinic does

The Dermatology Clinic, P.A. is a privately-held dermatology practice founded in 1932 and headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, operating as the oldest privately-owned dermatology practice in the Wichita area. The clinic provides a unified suite of medical, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology services across three locations (East Wichita, West Wichita, and Derby, Kansas), supported by board-certified dermatologists with over 100 years of combined clinical experience. Core service lines include medical dermatology (acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, skin cancer, hair/nail disorders), surgical dermatology (biopsies, excisions, electrodessication and curettage, cryosurgery), and cosmetic dermatology anchored by third-party devices including InMode's Morpheus8 (fractional RF microneedling), Lumecca (IPL), and DiolazeXL (diode laser hair removal), SkinPen microneedling, and Allergan injectables (Botox, JUVÉDERM). Specialty treatments include Narrowband UVB and Psoracomb phototherapy, Levulan/BLU-U photodynamic therapy, and superficial radiation therapy for non-melanoma skin cancer, with an in-house pathology laboratory supporting diagnostic turnaround.

The clinic operates on a fee-for-service revenue model. Medical and surgical services are billed through Medicare and most major insurance plans, with the clinic filing claims on behalf of patients and collecting co-pays, deductibles, and co-insurance at the time of service. Cosmetic procedures are non-covered benefits requiring private payment at time of service, and the clinic generates ancillary revenue through retail skincare product sales (Elta MD and Skinceuticals lines). Patient acquisition is sales-led and consultation-driven, relying on phone-based appointment scheduling, local SEO, an active Facebook presence, and patient reviews/testimonials (4.0/5.0 across 354 reviews). The go-to-market is entirely domestic and concentrated within the Wichita metropolitan area, with no disclosed expansion, funding, or M&A activity.

Technology infrastructure consists of standard clinical dermatology equipment and the Athenahealth patient portal for records access, scheduling, and provider communication. The practice is locally owned with no parent company, institutional investors, or disclosed leadership changes, and has no AI/ML capabilities or proprietary technology platform beyond device-based treatment offerings.
